Zuhayr ibn Harb, ʿUthmān ibn Abī Shaybah, and Isḥāq ibn Ibrāhīm narrated to us—Isḥāq said: "We were informed," while the other two said: "Narrated to us Jarīr, from Manṣūr, from Abū Wāʾil, from ʿAbd Allāh," who said: The Messenger of Allāh, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. A man continues to speak the truth until he is recorded with Allāh as a truthful one. Indeed, lying leads to wickedness, and wickedness leads to the Fire. A man continues to lie until he is recorded with Allāh as a liar."
